Babsie, are you saying that your own mother has been taking asparagus and has had these results? Or is that just part of the e-mail you received. It's important, because I need to know someone this has actually worked for. My Sister in Law's husband has just been diagnosed with a softball sized lung cancer that was not there in February! I want to send this to her, but do not want to give her any false hope, either. Also, my little kitty Minou has a tumor, and I'll be glad to stuff asparagus down her little gullet if it would help. Cats actually like asparagus, anyway. Please let me know, and also has anyone checked this out on Snopes? Too good to be true and all that, you know? But I am desperate, so I await your answer. Hugs, Marji

I have read other articles about Asparagus. My brother was to be treated with Chemo a year ago. He had one treatment and told them he would rather die than take that stuff. I sent him a lot of info about fruits and vegetables. He started on it and now says he feels like he is 20 years yonger. He is 73 years old. Said he can't sit down very long before he is up and doing something. I really believe in the asparagus.

Asparagus (Who Knew????)

Asparagus

My Mom had been taking the full-stalk canned style asparagus that she
pureed and she took 4 tablespoons in the morning and 4 tablespoons later
in the day. She did this for over a month. She is on chemo pills for
Stage 3 lung cancer in the pleural area and her cancer cell count went
from 386 down to 125 as of this past week. Her oncologist said she does
not need to see him for 3 months.

THE ARTICLE:
Several years ago, I had a man seeking asparagus for a friend who had
cancer. He gave me a photocopied copy of an article,entitled, `Asparagus
for cancer' printed in Cancer News Journal, December 1979.
I will share it here, just as it was shared with me:
'I am a biochemist,and have specialized in the relation of diet to
health for over 50 years..Several years ago, I learned of the discovery
of Richard R.. Vensal, D.D.S. that asparagus might cure cancer.

Since then, I have worked with him on his project. We have accumulated a
number of favorable case histories. Here are a few examples:
Case No. 1, A man with an almost hopeless case of Hodgkin's disease
(cancer of the lymph glands) who was completely incapacitated. Within 1
year of starting the asparagus therapy, his doctors were unable to
detect any signs of cancer, and he was back on a schedule of strenuous
exercise.

Case No. 2, a successful businessman 68 years old who suffered from
cancer of the bladder for 16 years. After years of medical treatments,
including radiation without improvement, he went on asparagus. Within 3
months, examinations revealed that his bladder tumor had disappeared and
that his kidneys were normal.

Case No.. 3, a man who had lung cancer. On March 5th 1971, he was put on
the operating table where they found lung cancer so widely spread that
it was inoperable. The surgeon sewed him up and declared his case
hopeless. On April 5th he heard about the asparagus therapy and
immediately started taking it. By August, x-ray pictures revealed that
all signs of the cancer had disappeared...
He is back20at his regular business routine.

Case No. 4, a woman who was troubled for a number of years with skin
cancer. She finally developed different skin cancers which were
diagnosed by the acting specialist as advanced. Within 3 months after
starting on asparagus, her skin specialist said that her skin looked
fine and no more skin lesions. This woman reported that the asparagus
therapy also cured her kidney disease, which started in 1949. She had
over 10 operations for kidney stones, and was receiving government
disability payments for an inoperable, terminal, kidney condition. She
attributes the cure of this kidney trouble entirely to the asparagus.

I was not surprised at this result, as `The elements of materia medica',
edited in 1854 by a Professor at the University of Pennsylvania, stated
that asparagus was used as a popular remedy for kidney stones. He even
referred to experiments, in 1739, on the power of asparagus in
dissolving stones. Note the dates!
We would have other case histories but the medical establishment has
interfered with our obtaining some of the records. I am therefore
appealing to readers to spread this good news and help us to gather a
large number of case histories that will overwhelm the medical skeptics
about this unbelievably simple and natural remedy.
For the treatment, asparagus should be cooked before using, and
therefore canned asparagus is just as good as fresh.

I have corresponded with the two leading canners of asparagus, Giant and
Stokely, and I am20satisfied that these brands contain no pesticides or
preservatives.
Place the cooked asparagus in a blender and liquefy to make a puree, and
store in the refrigerator. Give the patient 4 full tablespoons twice
daily, morning and evening.
Patients usually show some improvement in from 2-4 weeks. It can be
diluted with water and used as a cold or hot drink.

This suggested dosage is based on present experience, but certainly
larger amounts can do no harm and may be needed in some cases.
As a biochemist I am convinced of the old saying that `what cures can
prevent'. Based on this theory, my wife and I have been using asparagus
puree as a beverage with our meals.
We take 2 tablespoons diluted in water to suit our taste with breakfast
and with dinner. I take mine hot and my wife prefers hers cold. For
years we have made it a practice to have blood surveys taken as part of
our regular checkups.

The last blood survey, taken by a medical doctor who specializes in the
nutritional approach to health, showed substantial improvements in all
categories over the last one, and we can attribute these improvements to
nothing but the asparagus drink...
As a biochemist, I have made an extensive study of all aspects of
cancer, and all of the proposed cures.

As a result, I am convinced that asparagus fits in better with the
latest theories about cancer. Asparagus contains a good supply of
protein called histones, which are believed to be active in controlling
cell growth. For that reason, I believe asparagus can be said to
contain a substance that I call cell growth normalizer. That accounts
for its action on cancer and in acting as a general body tonic.

In any event, regardless of theory, asparagus used as we suggest, is a
harmless substance. The FDA cannot prevent you from using it and it may
do you much good. It has been reported by the US National Cancer
Institute, that asparagus is the highest tested food containing
glutathione, which is considered one of the body's most potent
anticarcinogens and antioxidants.

Please spread the news... the most unselfish act one can ever do is
paying forward all the kindness one has received, even to the most
undeserved person.
